I don't play the game, but I am a huge fan of the spreadsheet adaptations. I mean, when you see a Titan stretched out on a pivot table, it's like, oh yeah. This is the medium it was meant for.
Look at the "press" involved: VentureBeat, HuffPo, Yahoo!, AOL, GeekWire. These aren't reporters. They're press release curators, with a little commentary around the edges.
Most of what I've posted to Github was a snip of example code that I needed to share with exactly one person. The only real project I have there was AGPL, and it's an enormous piece of work. By project, I'm 5% open licensed. By lines-of-code, it's more like 99%.
You forgot availability. If If could hop a train to skip my 1.25 hour commute, I'd be on it in a heartbeat. Funding is an issue, but inter-jurisdictional planning is also a major barrier to getting anything useful done. Of course, big pots of Federal money tend to make the locals work together.
The logs were never released. Seriously, where's the download? Instead, a summary chart was released. They have not, meanwhile, released any recordings of Broders several calls to Telsa support to discuss the fluctuating range indicator. Tesla makes nice cars, but they are not being transparent.
When he left the last charging station the car very clearly stated that it would not be able to reach the destination.
... because Tesla support told him, via phone, that the range indicator was unreliable below freezing, and that "range" would return as the battery warmed. They were right - the range improved - but not enough to get to the charger. You'll still filtering the story down to support the PR version of events.
Funny that Musk has declined to release logs of those phone calls.
The fundamental claim that Musk put out -- that the reporter intentionally drained the battery, and that the towing was faked -- has been completely disproven. The reporter used the car in non-optimal user behavior, and the car failed. This is entirely legitimate reviewing, and Musk called him a liar. '
Unfortunately, looking at how the FBI abused its powers decades ago....
Decades ago? You apparently haven't been following the sad story of the FBI and anti-globalization protestors in the 1990s, anti-war protestors in the 2000s, and Occupy activists in the 2010s.
A) This is inconsistent with the research into the neurology of "surfing." The machine influences how your brain behaves. You need to fix the machine. OP is asking for ways to do that.
B) Putting limiter software on is exactly the sort of self-imposed "remind yourself" that you're talking about. It's not like you can't uninstall it.
Change is hard. I get irritated with people insisting people "take responsibility for yourself" when they are, in fact, doing exactly that.
Chrome extension. Whitelists, blacklists and time-limited-browsing. Work hours / free hours set by weekly schedule. Set it and leave it. My favorite use case: kicks me off the web at midnight.
A good Ask Slashdot will be educational to 95% of the readers and interesting to 5% with expertise in that discipline. "I don't want those 'apps' on it" is more like arguing with a version of me from 2004.
This "Lind" guy was required reading in my policy sci department. He's writing about policy, not technology. Putting a policy framework around "cyberspace" is much harder than coming up with a policy framework for telecom competition, free expression, and surveillance.
Get back to me when its cast as a reproducible law.. and not by simply tweaking computer models to get the results you want... and make sure it goes all the way back to the planets formation... not just 100 years of questionable recorded data.
That's how it works.. consensus is not part of it... no matter how many hack statistical only scientists clamoring for acceptance and a group hug say otherwise.
I honestly can't tell if this is satire, or just slashdot being slashdot.

2012-02-12 is the ISO, because it works OK in all regions, save a few Buddhist calendar countries.

...and the male Yahoo! CEOs have had a good run?
If only there were a global information system capable of streamlining the transmission and storage of "paperwork".

How it should be used: "This section here doesn't seem to provide value to our students"
How it will be used: "You read the book, but your page rate was excessive in parts, so the computer gave you a reading score of 87%."
Copyright is completely fucked. Trademark law is more or less sensible, and does useful things to protect consumers. This is an example.

Don't forget about the ads!
Who puts this bullshit as "insightful"?
I have a botnet, and the terms of my parole say I can only use it on Slashdot.

This bears little resemblance to what actually happened.
> If you're defective, you should get that fixed. Not expect the rest of us to modify our behavior.
This statement is the de facto definition of white male privilege.
You forgot just-in-time manufacturing. The "first edition" might be dozens of actual print runs.

Neither of which have been made public. Only a blog post with an agenda.

His most famous book is a dissection of how a wealthy overclass is separating itself from American society and rigging the system, particularly banks, to it's benefit. It was published in 1995, and considered kind of crazy at the time.

Global warming is at BEST a hypothesis.
